Three people are recovering at a local hospital after a two car accident in Mecosta County's Green Township.
It happened on Northbound US-131 just north of 19 Mile Rd.
Sheriff Deputies say an investigation revealed a 45-year old Marshall man was driving when he struck a deer which disabled his vehicle in the road.
While the vehicle was disabled it was rear ended by a vehicle driven by a 56-year old Kentucky man which caused both vehicles to leave the roadway.
Both drivers and an 81-year old female passenger were taken to Spectrum Health Big Rapids Hospital for non-life threatening injuries.
